re: the following post - yeah, I don't really know. I think the sun is beginning (pfft!) to bleach my brain.

Today Spooks fandom has been running around making me smile which is SUPER random because this is the Fandom of Woe (I don't care if you disagree, y'all; this shit is oft low). The easiest one to talk about is hestia8's newest fic, Thrill Seeker, a crossover with 28 Days Later (apparently the post-apocalyptic scenario really appeals - and hey, why not?) featuring some smashing Zaf characterisation that everyone wishes he'd gotten in the series. Also: a laconic Ros. What's not to love?

Other things are more vague: probably-not-true casting spoilers (um, not for Spooks, although more than tangentially related) and promises of more fic. Yayarms, people, yayarms.

In the Real Life department, omg, I have to collect my (provisional) dissertation marks tomorrow. In the words of ye olde internets, does not want! I'm content to not know my dissertation grade and/or my degree classification for the rest of time. (Oh self, when did you lose your spine? Oh yeah: AGES AGO.)

T leaves for Brighton on Saturday, The Flatmate is leaving for Familial Things on Sunday (back Tuesday, thank fuck) and I'll probably be heading back home on Thursday. I'm failing at preventing a constant state of !!! GUYS. I AM SEVERELY ALARMED BY TIME. Oiskie, someone had to tell me what year it was today. I was very much displeased to hear that it's '08. OH EIGHT WHAT WHAT. I don't even know.

On the plus side, I walked up a storm and a half today. Magnificent.

We also breakfasted out this morning, which was lovely, and I've started reading Life of Pi. I don't really know why I'm telling y'all this as Twitter is only going to repeat me at 6am tomorrow, but anyway, I like the book so far.

Also: I made the best chip-like potato food at lunch today. Thin, fries-like, with spices. Yum.

Obviously I'm that kind of pretentious. Currently I'm rocking out to Vivaldi. Oh yeah. (Which reminds me! Poetry, yay.)

I loved logging into del.icio.us this morning to find four Spooks recs waiting for me :)))))))

Great! Because there'll be more as soon as I can work out where I bookmarked them. Dear del.icio.us, how did I exist before you?

Less Fandom of Woe than Fandom of What Show Are You Watching, Exactly?, I find.

(side note: I really must get the series 2 recaps done so I'm all up to date)

Thank you for the comments :) Took me a while to work out the casting spoilers, but then I remembered reading about the actor exchange programme going on :D

PS, I suck at FBing, but I adored your Tessa and Juliet fic. Just adored adored ADORED!

"Actor Exchange Programme", hee. Great phrase.

I recently sold all my Spooks DVDs, and now I'm wondering why, because I really want to re-watch seasons 3-5. Curses. !

Aw - you just made my fairly craptastic day loads better. Thanks!
